Skillchains/Magicbursts; How they can work in ARR.

[TaalAzura]

Oh god, don't bring that bullshit from FFXI back. Skillchaining and magic bursting was the stupidest waste of time ever. By the time you complete one skillchain/Magic burst everyone could have gotten off four times as much damage by just spamming what they had when they had it. It crippled FFXI players by handing them a crutch they didn't need but never thought to set aside for years until they realized how stupidly wasteful on the time and sanity it was and did away with it completely. As soon as they did HNMs/Gods/etc started dropping in a matter of minutes instead of hours. No thank you.

I feel like you didn't even read my post; had I called it "combos" what would you have said?

You're so dense.

A lot of the XIV community hates XI and everything about it and want it to stay there while defending FFXIV ARR being pretty much a carbon copy of every MMO that came out since 2004.

I doubt she played 1.x either because the 1.23 combo system was basically the same concept and same execution, it was just solo - I would really want to see this back as it would give some interaction with this battle system beyond just dodging scripted skills.
